Grieve AND organize.
Good article by David Hunter on how to survive the Trump presidency, both on the personal and on the political plane.

I rambled about this in tags on another post but I can’t emphasize enough how only focusing on large-scale issues WILL lead to hopelessness & burnout. Activism must include small-scale, achievable works. If you don’t have something you can get your hands around and look at directly, despair will eat you alive.

Real sick of hearing that kamala didn't run a good campaign or should've done x y z better. She was running against an 80yr old convicted felon, rapist, racist etc etc, why on earth should she have needed anything more than a decent&normal campaign to beat THAT??

no matter the outcome of this election: organize, build local community, build strength in masses. elections aren't the only time politics happen, it also happens on the streets, in the community and by mutually supporting each other.
the way forward is together. we build power from the ground up. in the US and everywhere else in the world.
a better world is possible and we can start building it now, by ourselves. anarchism starts in the now.

Also, I'm so curious about how men seem so comfortable just watching women do housework?? My dad standing in the kitchen, watching my mom cook dinner. My boyfriend coming over trying to cuddle while I wash dishes. When I notice him doing something (rare), my instinct is always to offer to help, I feel almost rude to not join in, but it never seems like they have that

Annoyed/confused/angry about the fact that men seem to think that saying "just tell me what you want me to do and I'll do it" is at all a decent answer when a woman says she's tired of doing all the housework. Completely missing the point! I don't want to have to instruct you to do things! I want you to just do them! Because we live here together and I'm not your mother/housekeeper?? Got so frustrated today that I cried because I'm feeling kinda sick and my bf still asked me what we're having for dinner. I don't want to have to respond to that "can you please make dinner because I don't feel well?" you KNOW I don't feel well, yet you still assume I'm going to make the food.... ended with me crying that I just wanted some bread and soup (from a can...) and him making it for me. But then, what would be a nice gesture is basically ruined by the fact that I had to spell it out and cry before he did it.... Like........ I don't get it. Maybe I just won't enjoy dating men, in terms of this being the level of care given. It seems like this is just *how it is*
